(COMPLETE) After dropping out of college to join the military, Mike wasn't heard from again. Now, six years later, he's sauntering back into town with new hair, a new physique, and... a new personality? He's definitely not the man Lindsey remembers him to be. He's suffering from extensive post-traumatic stress disorder, which only triggers her need to protect him from the demons terrorizing his own mind. But as Mike's depression flares, Lindsey is forced to find comfort in an old friend as her own dirty secrets start slipping into the open. When anonymous love-letters start popping up just after Mike's arrival, a sliver of hope blooms to life. But as much as she'd like to believe that Mike's behind them, she can't bring herself to believe that the broken, hostile man she's come to know again could be capable of such fragile words. And as time passes and she grows closer to a certain 'best friend', Lindsey starts to doubt if Mike is really what's best for her. Is this wounded soldier softer than he appears or is there another man in town who's ready to cherish Lindsey's heart the way she deserves?

Two reclusive people meet in a charity soup kitchen in a down-and-out area of London, and their mutual attraction tempts them to follow their hearts. Both know that breaking out of their social shells risks revisiting buried traumas, but it might relieve their loneliness. Valerie has been celibate since she was drugged and raped, and she now concentrates on three things - running her corporate empire, maintaining a low profile and guiding her inquisitive daughter through puberty. Lorne is still grieving a fiancée who died years before, but when he meets Valerie, his dormant desires waken. With little information beyond her first name, he takes a bold step and invites her to Valentine's Day dinner. Their relationship escalates with blinding speed and all the comforts of a billionaire lifestyle, but the bliss is interrupted by a smear campaign on social media. Valerie's rapist is out of prison and looking for revenge. She wants to crawl back into her shell, but Lorne's love and acceptance continue drawing her out.
